BONPLAND'S VEGETABLE REMEDY. 

FOR THE CURE OF 
FEVER AND AGUE, and other FEVERS 
of a BILIOUS CHARACTER 

ISAAC OSGOOD, Proprietor. 



This truly valuable remedy was compounded after the experi- 
ence of several years, in the treatment of intermittent and remit- 
tent fever, and other forms of bilious diseases, as they occur in 
various parts of the United States. 

The unparalleled success which has followed its use, in every 
case in which it was prescribed, has induced the proprietor to 
bring it before the public in such a manner, as that all who are 
suffering under these distressing complaints, may avail themselves 
of its beneficial effects. It is not offered to the public as an uni- 
versal panacea for all diseases to which the human frame is sub- 
ject, but as a purifier of the blood, by removing the obstructions 
of the liver and promoting the flow of bile. It is especially intended 
for the prevention and cure of intermittent fever, or as it is com- 
monly called, Fever and Ague ; this being one of the most preva- 
lent forms of bilious disease. Although the symptoms of this dis- 
ease. are pretty generally understood ; still, it may not be amiss to 
state them in the order in which they commonly occur. 

INTERMITTENT FEVER. 
The fit, or paroxysm of this distressing form of fever, is ushered 
in by a great sense of lassitude or weakness, frequent yawning 
and stretching, an uncomfortable feeling of weakness of the whole 
body, with aching pains in the loins and extremities. After these 
symptoms have continued for a length of time, the patient begins 
to feel a slight sensation of chilliness and coldness along the back, 
which is often attended with frequent yawning and a disposition 
to change the position of the body. The extremities then feel 
cold and benumbed, and are evidently shrunken or diminished in 
size. Sometimes the sensation of cold is very intense, at others it 
is but slight, this is succeeded by rigors terminating in universal 
shaking. After the sense of coldness has been endured for some 
time, its intensity begins to abate gradually, and is eventually suc- 
ceeded by a glow, which spreads itself over the whole body, at 
first irregularly, by transient flushes, soon, however, succeeded by 
a steady, dry and burning heat, which rises much above the natural 



4 



standard — pains arise in the head, and flying pv.ins are felt over 
different parts of the body. The pulse is quick, strong and hard. 
The tongue is white, and there is great thirst, etc. A moisture is 
at length observed to break out over the face and neck, which soon 
becomes an equable universal perspiration. The heat now comes 
down to the natural standard, the pulse is diminished in frequency 
and becomes full and free, breathing becomes easy, and all the 
functions are restored to their natural standard. After a certain 
interval of one, two, or three days, the paroxysm again returns in 
the same way as above described. 

Such is the usual course of the disease, but it is subject to great 
variation. In some cases the symptoms are all much milder, at 
others more aggravated. 

Directions. 

It is absolutely necessary to cleanse thoroughly the stomach and 
bowels, before taking the remedy, either by ten or fifteen grains 
of calomel, or two or three blue pills, or an active dose of any of 
the usual cathartic medicines. Breaking the chill, is not curing 
the disease ; the cure is but just commenced. If the Patient 
should have had the disease for a long time, or been a long time 
exposed to its causes, it will therefore require a greater period for 
its cure, and two or more bottles may be necessary. If it should 
prove too bitter to the taste, it can be taken in half a wine-glass 
of milk. 

While the chill is on, the patient should be kept as comfortable 
as possible, and should drink warm gruel or herb tea. 

During the hot stage, should the fever get too high, it may be 
moderated by giving ten or fifteen drops of Laudanum, and apply- 
ing cold to the head, by means of a rag dipped in vinegar and 
water, and by drinking cooling accidulated drinks. 

The stomach and bowels having been properly cleansed by the 
action of the cathartic, the person must then commence taking 
the Remedy. It must be taken during the intermission., commenc- 
ing soon after the sweating stage is over. Take a teaspoonful 
every hour regularly, until the disease is checked, and after that, 
take a teaspoonful four times a day, continuing to do so for several 
days, so as to fortify the Constitution against a second attack. 

If the patient is from six to twelve years of age, the dose should 
be half a teaspoonful at a time. If from four to six years, a quar- 
ter of a teaspoonful, and in this proportion for younger children. 
The remedy is perfectly harmless, so that these quantities need 
not be too strictly observed — twice the quantity could be given 
without doing any injury, but the dose a c staled is found ft " 
sufficient. 



5 



If there is any sediment formed in the bottle by standing, it must 
oe shaken gently before each dose. 

REMITTENT FEVER, or Bilious Remittent Fever, comes on 
in a similar manner as Intermittent Fever, or Ague and Fever, 
and resembles it in many respects, but the paroxysms or fits, suc- 
ceed each other so soon, that at first there is hardly any inter- 
mission or interval, when the patient feels relief. The treatment 
should be similar to that for intermittent fever, after the system 
has been somewhat relieved by gentle purging, and the use of 
cooling drinks — after which take the remedy as already directed. 

There are many forms of intermittent disease, such as periodi- 
cal headache, nervous headache, &c, which are often cured by 
taking a teaspoonful of the remedy three times daily. 

The proprietor of this valuable remedy, could produce hundreds 
of certificates from persons who have used it, and who have been 
restored to perfect health, but it is believed that the publication 
of them would not be more satisfactory than the following, from 
the well-known and justly-esteemed Chemist of New York, Doct. 
James R. Chilton : — 

To ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, THIS IS TO CERTIFY, that I have 

used the Medicine known as Bonpland's Remedy for the Fever 
and Ague, in my practice for several years, and having become 
thoroughly acquainted with its Composition, and seen its beneficia. 
effects in hundreds of cases, I should deem it an act of injustice to 
the public, if I withheld my opinion of its merits. It is one of the 
best popular Remedies I have ever known, for the permanent cure 
of Intermittent Fever, and other Fevers of a similar character. 
In many Districts of Country, the aid of a Physician cannot read- 
ily be obtained, and in such places, the value of its introduction 
will be doubly felt. JAS. R. CHILTON, M. D. Chemist, &c. 
Isaac Osgood, Proprietor, New York. 
New York, Nov. 12th, 1847. 



Mr Osgood. 

Your medicine has performed wonders, as the above certificate 
will show. You told me to find one of the hardest cases that I 
could hear of, and give a bottle to the person to test its efficacy. 
This is the case, and of which I wrote you some time since, that 
I had in hand. He is a man who has had the advantages of an 
education only to a very limited extent ; a Carpenter by trade, 
and when I saw him first, was in the condition he describes. He 
had had the Ague for two years, was very much bloated, like a 
person with the dropsy ; and was not able to work without having 

chills" every day or two. He haJ taken only about two-thirds 



6 



of the medicine in tne bottle, and says he is now perfectly well 
and hardy, and that he has not been in so good health for three 
years past, and thinks your medicine is the only thing that has in 
fact, saved his life. He had tried * Osgood's Cholagogue" and every 
other article of medicine he could hear of, but their effects were 
no better than water. 

I was about to write to you the result of the experiment, when 
vours, by my brother, came to hand. 

You can make use of this letter in, any way you please, and at- 
tach his name to it: and you can also add my testimonial and that 
of Mr. Horace Saxton, that we know this man, and that he has 
been cured by Bonpland's Remedy." Yours, verv respectful Iv, 

Signed, FREDERICK BISSELL. * 

Toledo, August 10th 9 1848. 



Mr. Osgood. Toledo, August 8tk, 1848. 

I have had the Fever and Ague tor two years and twelve days, 
without cessation ; and have also had the most skillful physicians 
in the country, first, Dr. Luckey of Ottawa County, second, Dr. 
Rider, of Lower Sandusky, third a German physician at Wood- 
ville, as also three different ones in this place ; viz. : Bostwick, 
Clark, and Ferguson. I got so bad, and became so badly bloated, 
that I had to cut open my boots, and have my clothes made larger. 
At last I could scarcely walk alone, and was finally cured by 
" Bonplands Vegetable Remedy" for Fever and Ague. 

The fifth time I used this medicine, the chill and fever left me, 
and I continued to take the medicine for some time after, regu- 
larly, a teaspoonful at a dose, and now I am finally and perfectly 
cured. I have still one-third of the medicine left in the bottle, 
and yet I am free from all chill and fever, and the swelling has 
entirely left me. I am also hardy and working at my trade, as a 
Carpenter. It is not necessarv to say anything more of this valu- 
able medicine. Signed, JONATHAN FRAZIER. 



Mr. Osgood New York, August 16th, 1848. 

Dear Sir, — I have analyzed the medicine which you term 
" Bonpland's Remedy for Fever and Ague," and find that it does 
not contain a particle of Arsenic in any form. It is entirely a 
vegetable compound. Very respectfully, Yours, 

Signed, JAMES R. CHILTON, M. D.

BONFX.AND'3 VEGETABLE REMEDY 



MEDICINA VEGETAL DE BONPLAND, 

PAKA CURAR 

LAS CALENTURAS, TERCIANAS Y OTRAS FIEiSRi^ DF 
CARACTER BILIOSO. 

Esta medicina de tanto y verdadero merito, debe su composicion a 
la esperiencia de muchos anos, en el tratamiento de las calenturas re 
mitentes e intermitentes, y a otras especies de enfermedades biliosas, de 
l#l que se presentan en varios puntos de los Estados Unidos. 

El suceso sin igual que se ha obtenido con su uso, en todos los 
casos eia que se ha administrado, ha animado &1 propietario, a presen- 
tarla al publico, de tal manera, que todos los que fuesen atacados por 
estas anictivas enfermedades, puedan aprovecharse de sus admirables 
efectos. No se ofrece al publico corao una panacea universal, para 
todas las enfermedades a que esta sugeto el genero huraano ; pero si 
como un depurativo de la sangre, destruyendo las obstruciones del 
higad(t, y promoviendo la fluencia de las bilis. Su preparacion esta 
calculada especialmente, para impedir y curar las calenturas intermi- 
tentes, Uamadas comunmente, Calentura 6 nebre terciana, que se consi- 
dera como una de las mas predominates afecciones biliosas. Sin em- 
bargo de que, los sintomas de esta enfermedad, son generalmente bien 
conocidos, no esta de mas indicar el orden bajo el cual se presenta 
comunmente. 

CALENTURA INTERMITEXTE. 

El ataque 6 parasismo, de esta calamitosa clase de calentura, se 
presenta, sintiendcse un gran cansancio 6 debilidad, continua sonolen- 
cia y deseo de dilatar los miembros : una desagradable dejadez 6 debi- 
lidad en todo el cuerpo, y con dolores agudos sobre de los rinones y en 
las estremidades. Algun tiempo despues de la continuacion de estos 
sintomas, el paciente empieza a sentir una ligera sensacion de esca- 
lofrios, y frialdad en toda la espalda, que a menudo trae consigo fre- 
zuente sonolencia, y un deseo de cambiar el cuerpo de posicion. En 
aeguida se sienten frias y yertas 6 entorpecidas las estremidades y na- 
turalmente se encojen. Algunas veces la sensacion del frio, es estre- 
mamente intensa, y en otras es muy ligera, finalizando regularmen f , 
por un rigoroso temblor general. Despues que por algun tiempo se ha 
hecho sufrir el frio, su intensidad empieza a disminuir gradualmente y 
concluye por ultimo con un calor que se esparce por todo el cuerpo, al 
principio irregularmente con una afluencia momentanea, pronto des- 
pues, sobreviene una consfc-r f "^--*edid y calor abrasador, que pasan- 



8 



do por mucho de los limites naturales, se hace insoportable : se siente 
dolor de cabeza, a la vez, que dolores volantes en diferentes partes del 
cuerpo ; pulsaciones activas y fuertes ; la lengua blanca y mucha se- 
cura, &c. Por ultimo se deja ver brotar mucba humedad por la cara 
y el cuello, que pronto degenera 6 se convierte en un sudor general ; 
en este estado, el cuerpo vuelve a su natural calor, las pulsaciones 
disminuyen, recobrando el pulso su estado tambien natural, sudando 
facilmente, y todas las funciones vuelven & adquirir su egercicio normal. 
Transcurrido cierto intervalo de uno, dos 6 tres dias, el parasismo se 
present^ de nuevo bajo el mismo orden que queda enarrado. Tal es 
pues, el curso regular y comun de esta enfermedad ; pero con todo 
esta sugeta a variaciones. En algunos casos, los sintomas son todos 
mucho mas benignos y en otros mas tormentosos. 

ESPLICACIONES SOBRE EL ORDEN DE ADM1NISTRARLA. 

Es absolutamente indispensable limpiar perfectamente bien el cs- 
tomago e intestinos, antes de hacer uso de esta medicina, sease toman- 
do diez 6 quince granos de mercurio dulce, 6 dos 6 tres pildoras mer- 
curiales, llamadas blue pills ; 6 de otra manera, una dosis activa de 
cualquier emetico. La curacion no debe considerarse becha, con solo 
haber conseguido hacer desaparecer los escalofrios 6 frios intensos, que 
se presentan al aparecer la calentura ; en esos casos debe tenerse pje- 
sente que la medicina empieza a obrar sus buenos efectos. Si el pa- 
ciente hubiese por mucho tiempo estado padeciendo la enfermedad, 6 
estado espuesto por algun tiempo a sus consecuencias, necesitara en- 
ton ces mucho mas tiempo para conseguir su curacion radical, y estard, 
en la precision de hacer uso de dos 6 mas botellas. Si la encontrase 
demasiado amarga al paladar, puede tomarse mezclada en medio vaso 
romun de leche. 

Mientras que el enfermo este atacado por los frios, debera perma- 
necer tan abrigado como la sea posible, y tomar a menudo, cocimiento 
de avena, cebada 6 te. Durante el periudo en que sienta demasiado ca- 
lor csterior, y que la calentura aumentase ; podia conseguir alivio, to- 
mando diez 6 quince gotas de laudano, y aplicandose en la frente 6 ca- 
beza defensivos de vinagre y agua y haciendo uso de algunas bebiclas 
accidas, y refriierantPi. 

Tan pronto como el paciente haya limpiado perfectamente bien el 
estomago y los intestinos, con el emetico, debera entonces empezar s 
hacer uso de esta medicina. Debera tomarse en el intervalo de la re- 
mision, es decir, inmediatamente se haya sudado la calentura, en dosis d< 
una cucharada de te, cada bora con regularidad, hasta que la enfcrme 
dad haya codido ; despues de lo que, se tomara la misma dosis, cuatr( 
V^ces al dia, continuando bajo ese orden y metodo, por algunos dias 
c n el objelo du fortificar la constitution 6 sistema nervioso y evifar e 
HCgundo atactic. 



9 



Si el paciente fuese de seis a doce anos de edad, la d6sis debera B£ 
£iedia cucharada de te cada vez. Si fuese de cuatro a seis anos; to^n*\ 
ra solo la cuarta parte de una cucharada, y guardando esa misma p >>- 
porcion para los de menos edad. La medicina es tan inocente y sen- 
cilia, que no es necesario observar estrictamente la cantidad ej\ la 
dosis ; doble cantidad de la senalada puede tomarse sin riesgo alguno ; 
pero la dosis demarcada se ha probado ser suficiente. 

Si por estar parada la botella, se notase algun sedimento 6 sea asien- 
to en el fondo de ella, debera sacudirse con suavidad, antes de estrser 
tie ella la dosis. 

LA CALENTURA REMITENTE, 6 fiebre biliosa remitente, se 
presenta de una manera semejante, a la Calentura intermitente, y Ca- 
lentura 6 fiebre terciana, pareciendosele mucho en varios conceptos ; 
pero el ataque 6 parasismo, se suceden uno al otro con tanta velocidad, 
que al principio es muy dificil que el enfermo consiga un momento de 
remision, en que] pueda disfrutar de algun alivio. El tratamiento de- 
bera ser igual al ordenado para las calenturas intermitentes, despues 
que de algun modo se haya evacuado el sistema, por medio de algun 
purgante ligero, y algunas bebidas refrigerantes ; despues de lo cual se 
puede administrar la medicina bajo el metodo que queda prescrito mas 
arriba. 

Hay varias clases de enfermedades intermitentes, tales como, la 
jaqueca periodica, ataques nerviosos, &c. que se curan muy a menudo, 
tomando una cucharada de te, de esta medicina tres veces al dia. 

El propietario de esta apreciable medicina pudiera producir algu- 
nos cientos de certificados de personas que con su uso han recobrado 
su perfecta salud; pero esta persuadido que la publicacion de ellos no 
seria mas satisfactoria, que el que da a continuacion, siendo producido 
por el Doctor James R. Chilton, quiraico perfectamente bien conoci- 
do y justamente apreciado en Nueva-York, dice asi : 

A TODOS A QUIENES CONCIERNA Y FUEDA CONVENIR, CERTIFICO : 

que por muchos aiios en mi practica, he administrado la Medicina co- 
Tiocida por " Medicina de Bonpland para las Calenturas y Tercianas," 
y despues de haber palpado sus buenos efectos, en cientos de casos y 
haber tambien adquirido un completo conocimiento acerca de su com- 
posicion ; consideraria un acto de injusticia hacia el publico, s : me ne- 
gase a rnanifestar mi opinion tocante a sus meritos. Es uno de los re 
medios mas populares, que jamas he conocido, para la curacion radical 
de la Calentura intermitente y otras Calenturas de caracter semejante. 
Eh muchos distritos del Campo, no se puede obtener prontamente el 
^usilio de un facultativo, y en esos puntos se conocera una doble ventaja 
m su :*itroducion.
